Agency in Stoning the Pillars and the Farewell Circumambulation for the Sick
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: I have brothers who are suffering from some illness. Is it permissible for me to stone the pillars, leave Mina for al-'Aziziyah, and stay until after 'Isha', and then perform the farewell tawaf after 'Isha'? Does the farewell tawaf cover those who are unable, such as the sick? And praise be to Allah.
The Shaykh:
If they have an illness that prevents them from stoning, making it difficult for them to stone, you appoint agents to stone for you, then you leave before sunset on the tenth day, and there is no other prevention, and then you perform the tawaf in the morning whenever you wish. Praise be to Allah.
The questioner:
May Allah welcome you. This questioner says:
The Shaykh:
The sick person performs the farewell tawaf while being carried. As for the menstruating woman and the woman with post-natal bleeding, there is no farewell tawaf required of them. Yes.
